A universal DNA barcode for the Tree of Life

"a novel barcoding method that uses exceptionally low-coverage genome skim data to create a “varKode”, a two-dimensional image representing the genomic landscape of a species. Using these varKodes, we then train neural networks for precise taxonomic identification."
